BPS state counting on singular varieties

Algebraic Geometry 2015-05-28 v3 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

We define new partition functions for theories with targets on toric singularities via products of old partition functions on crepant resolutions. We compute explicit examples and show that the new partition functions turn out to be homogeneous on MacMahon factors.
